Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Friday, 27-Oct-2023 04:00:31 JST Cayhr @Tamamo I'm thinking back now, we saw so many games that had the same quirky and annoying direction that it was unsettling. But little did we know it was because some parasitic fungus spread its mycelial network into all these corpos.
I think it's a hidden god send that the credits exist :shinobu_kaka:

Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Wednesday, 25-Oct-2023 03:48:56 JST Cayhr @Spooke It shouldn't, but is always at risk of doing so as long as the concept of a bank is an institution. Institutions are corruptible, especially ones that handle the flow of money, since government is INHERENTLY incentivized to gain control over it. -
Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Tuesday, 24-Oct-2023 11:11:20 JST Cayhr @kilostere I think the usual suspects are surprised that it even exists, which puts into perspective the intrusive nature of normies: Everything must appeal to them and if it doesn't it must be changed or otherwise be perceived as wrong.
It's like that Azur Lane Kashino skin that caused a buncha of nontroversy. Actual fans expected it, outsiders are appalled because they can't fathom something being made for the target audience (or at least part of it since there's plenty of cunny in AL). "yo dawg wtf are gacha games doin 💀" -

:jerry_what: Holy cow! I knew people loved Garrus (and I was quite fond of him as a crewmate too), but this goes beyond what I expected. Or perhaps, I should have expected it.

Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Oct-2023 16:00:49 JST Cayhr @wan >Maybe that's the only kind of romance they know?
It is inevitable that writers will project a bit of their persona into the writing of their work; the writer's bias. A writer who believes in familial bond will find a way to work it into his story, or at least consider it if it is not intended to be part of the current work. However, the modern "brain" -let's say- I believe has never been taught any amount of self-restraint, rationality, or objectivity. When I watch some of the dialogue of newer games unfold, I tend to fold myself inside out.
Which is weird because I don't think Belgium is like the west coast of America, is it? Is Larian filled with... "those types" from California academic institutions? I could believe the writers projecting the promiscuous tendencies of the recent generations into the game's romance if Larian was based in America, but afaik, it is a Belgian studio. I have no experience with the previous BG games so I have no point of reference, but I can't imagine it was historically cringe and despondent...

Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Oct-2023 11:46:41 JST Cayhr @wan I saw everyone lusting over Karlach, was curious, and was not interested whatsoever. Couple that with the photo I saw of that ugly purple fairy thing that I wanted to burn with fire.
Man, it's tragic because I love some of the technically implemented game mechanics I've seen in BG3. The throwing, a lot of the jumping, the terrain interacting with the skills, etc. So if anything, it's going to be a case study for tactical gameplay systems that I'll be sailing for to implement in my own title, because I sure as hell am not funding the disgusting shit I've seen in that game, and it's not the gore :vomit:

I think this is the real sad state of affairs here. What we knew was great and normal back then is ground breaking and amazing nowadays because their standards are low.

Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Oct-2023 11:11:58 JST Cayhr @AmericanChampion I think a lot of people just checked out of Marvel IPs in general. -
Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Oct-2023 11:06:54 JST Cayhr @bleedingphoenix Starfield I didn't see anyone really defend, but at least for BG3, I can see the arguments for the decent DND style tactics. That being said I refuse to buy it because of the... STUFF in it, let's just say.
Unfortunately it was real quick how some people jumped to totally shut down all criticism of BG3 with "But it was a good game though???" Idc, I don't want to subsidize my ideology enemies lol

Cayhr (cayhr@varishangout.net)'s status on Saturday, 21-Oct-2023 12:20:32 JST Cayhr @rainignterror1080p I still think it's funny how this gigantic mess of glorified violence is proclaimed to be the best storytelling and experiencing a gamer could ever have.
Also LMAO 28 dilations later.
